Alizarin Crimson Hue

A modern version of historical Alizarin Crimson, which was a substitute for Rose Madder, a dye use for the British Red Coats. Our mix of quinacridone and phthalo make this exceptionally lightfast and strong tinting, with a deep reddish brown undertone like the historical color. (Series7)
